[Alberg30] engine pan

[J Bergquist]

Okay I got another question...

Another thing I want to do is install a drip pan beneath my engine (I do 
not have a hull liner). Right now, the engine leaks a little oil from 
the rear seal. I am going to pull it out and fix the seal in February. 
When I do that, I want to install a drip pan beneath it so that I can 
make sure that nothing falls from the engine into the bilge (I like my 
bilges very very clean, as I expect most people do...) Has anybody done 
this? Currently, I am thinking to just epoxy/glass 4 blocks of hardwood 
to the hull, then drill holes in them and bolt a piece of 1/2" plywood, 
cut to shape, to fit there beneath the engine. I will waterproof the 
plywood and then put an oil-dry pad on top of it. I figure this should 
help me keep my bilges clean. Any recommendations or ideas?

Thanks!
